  • Persistence of the Mythic Hero in American Cinema
    Colloquium: A Journal of the Arts Department (ISSN 2350-1251), Volume 5, 2018 URL of the Issue: http://colloquium.bescollege.net/V5 PDF URL: http://colloquium.bescollege.net/V5/v502.pdf Tales of violence and revival: Persistence of the mythic hero in American cinema Arup Ratan Samajdar College Whole Time Lecturer, Department of Film Studies, The Bhawanipur Education Society College When James Mangold’s Logan released in 2017, it was a highly anticipated superhero film.1 While the film was all set to become a landmark in the superhero genre, as soon as it opened in theatres, fans and critics immediately noted how far removed the film was from the usual superhero fanfare and how closely it resonated with westerns. In one of the earliest reviews, Peter Travers noted, “Logan has the shape of a classic western. Shane is directly referenced in one scene and the elegiac tone of the film recalls Clint Eastwood's Oscar-winning Unforgiven”.2 While Travers might have just scratched the surface, given the limited scope and immediacy of a review, Logan shares far deeper bonds with westerns than just familiar plotlines and iconographies. To understand the structural similarities which impart the film its identity as a western, one must go back to the most fundamental facets of the genre, namely the frontier myth and the notion of the mythic hero and address one of the foremost preoccupations of westerns, idea of masculinity. American West(ern): From history to myth "When the legend becomes fact, print the legend." - The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance (John Ford, 1962) The western has not only been the most distinctive genre in the American studio system but also a quintessential American institution.

It has been accepted for inclusion in Dissertations - ALL by an authorized administrator of SURFACE. For more information, please contact [email protected]. Abstract When Netflix launched in April 1998, Internet video was in its infancy. Eighteen years later, Netflix has developed into the first truly global Internet TV network. Many books have been written about the five broadcast networks – NBC, CBS, ABC, Fox, and the CW – and many about the major cable networks – HBO, CNN, MTV, Nickelodeon, just to name a few – and this is the fitting time to undertake a detailed analysis of how Netflix, as the preeminent Internet TV networks, has come to be. This book, then, combines historical, industrial, and textual analysis to investigate, contextualize, and historicize Netflix's development as an Internet TV network. The book is split into four chapters. The first explores the ways in which Netflix's development during its early years a DVD-by-mail company – 1998-2007, a period I am calling "Netflix as Rental Company" – lay the foundations for the company's future iterations and successes. During this period, Netflix adapted DVD distribution to the Internet, revolutionizing the way viewers receive, watch, and choose content, and built a brand reputation on consumer-centric innovation.
